Mike Watt

Despite what Mike will tell you, we all know he is absolutely brilliant in the most extraordinary way. He’s modest and kind and ever-so-intrigued by ordinary people and their not-so-ordinary narratives. You can bet that the moment you step into Mike’s semi-fictional imaginary comic community the characters you encounter will be 100% full of the best bio-dynamic, nutrient rich character you can find. If you’re lucky enough you might even meet the gnashing sharp teeth of the maniacal Ronald McDonald roaming the streets with dripping gutter burger breath. It can get weird, there’s no doubt about it, but aren’t we are all weirdos, sometimes?

Mike is a regular and prominent figure on the public art scene and has been featured in numerous pop culture publications including his most recent interview for No Cure Magazine.

On inspiration: This is where my mind gets well lost, it goes from growing up watching William Hanna and Joseph Barbera (Hanna-Barbera) cartoons to focussing my colour studies on Jeffry Smarts work, to my peers such as Skulk who has pushed my art into new directions.

My work is my life, the way I represent that on my body is art collecting, I travel a lot and have a back catalogue of art ready to go on me as I can't take large framed pieces everywhere I go, if you're an artist I've spent some time with and admire, chances are I'll get something you've done zapped.
